I guess its true that Leonardo DiCaprio hasn’t cracked a smile on screen in about a hundred years. Or so it seems, especially if you’ve been loyally heading out to the multiplexes for all his recent films, including, of course, “Inception,” which has exactly one good joke in the entire movie, coming when one of its characters asks, ”Whose subconscious are we going into exactly?”
So I suspect my colleague, Times film critic Betsy Sharkey, has found plenty of people who agree with her provocative piece in today’s paper, which is succinctly headlined: “Lighten up, Leo!” (I’ve added the exclamation point, because, well, I knew that’s what Betsy really had in mind.) After citing all of DiCaprio’s ultra-serious movies from the past few years, Sharkey says: “Suffice it to say that there are more than enough dark endeavors to turn that deep worry line already etching its way between his brows into a veritable chasm. Besides, wouldn’t it be nice to see DiCaprio’s dazzling smile, the one that crinkles those aquamarine eyes so winningly, on something besides the Jumbotron at Lakers games?”
But why is DiCaprio so intent on starring in such dark films? And why, as Sharkey wonders, is he so reluctant to play a sexy rake or charming conman, as he did in “Titanic” and “Catch Me If You Can”? I think the answer is pretty obvious, especially if you look at the two actors who clearly had the biggest influence on DiCaprio’s career–Robert De Niro and Johnny Depp. As it turns out, DiCaprio, who turns 36 in November, isn’t really taking a career path that’s so different from other gifted actors at his age, notably De Niro and Depp. When you’re young, especially as an actor or a musician, you’re often obsessively curious about the dark corners of the world–it feels like going for laughs is a betrayal of your gifts as an artist.
